Sagot :

Because the triangles are congruent, we will see that x = 2.5

How to find the value of x?

Here we can see that we have two congruent triangles, RST and RTU. Because the triangles are congruent, all the correspondent sides must have equal measures.

This implies that:

RS = RU

Then, replacing the measures, we get:

8x = 6x + 5

Solving this for x we get:

8x - 6x = 5

2x = 5

x = 5/2 = 2.5

So we can conclude that x = 2.5
